Honkai Impact 3rd is not considered a small opening

"And I choose to believe in Aponia."

Why? Because Aponia fainted. Despite being in good mental condition, the premature break in their so-called destiny derailed her mental state.

An Yu felt that Aponia, with her personality, would not lie.

Liars must swallow a thousand silver needles.

“I understand, I understand. Is this fate or destiny? Or perhaps a pair of companions under the stars?” Alicia chuckled to herself.

But to be honest, the old Alicia really fell for this whole thing, and she was completely swayed by it. She had heard all three of these explanations from An Yu: fate, destiny, and destined partners under the stars.

So she genuinely believed in such things, until the boy who shouted, "The collapse hasn't ended, so why should I have a home?" got a girlfriend.

“Well, the situation is a bit special. This time, Aponia told me that I am the one chosen by fate, and she is the one who listens to fate.”

So rather than saying that An Yu deceived Aponia, it's more accurate to say that Aponia hoped to persuade An Yu, and An Yu took the opportunity to win her back.

“Besides, Aponia is different from you; she genuinely wants to save the world,” An Yu remarked.

Möbius: ?

“She wanted to kill me. Before that, I had no doubt that if I couldn’t explain myself, we would be enemies.”

Alicia: ?

"Fortunately, we are still partners, and she seems to agree with what I said."

An Yu shrugged.

Given Aponia's nature, if he couldn't explain himself clearly, Aponia might misunderstand him as someone who was fighting for power and disregarding the survival of humanity.

Aponia will die in the hospital.

She will definitely take action; she's a doer, a true pragmatist, and she does what she thinks of.

Unfortunately, like An Yu, she was not highly educated and lacked experience, so her impulsive actions were prone to problems.

This is not child's play; Aponia is real, transforming human society into a game.

It's a game that can be played on paper, so Aponia should learn more about it instead of forcing herself to do it when she lacks experience.

"Your friend, well, is a little extreme." Alicia forced a smile.

No, An Yu, are you sick in the head?

You did this with a guy who was hostile to you.

If the future explodes, you two will both die.

“I think she’s great. At least on the road to saving the world, Aponia is the most steadfast partner I know.”

Of course, they are neither the most reliable nor the most trustworthy, because their trust chain is not very long yet. If something goes wrong, the other's steadfastness will turn into trouble.

The most reliable one has to be Sister Wei!

My seemingly omnipotent magician!

Alicia blinked her big eyes, not knowing who An Yu was pointing at.

Is saving the world a popular major among young people right now?

Mebius didn't understand, so he placed the instant noodles and the kettle in front of An Yu and sat back in his own seat.

An Yu nodded directly: "Saving the world has always been a very popular major among young people!"

“It’s simple that Sister Mei can’t understand it. Just like I still don’t understand why someone would spend decades working on such an obscure field as human evolution,” An Yu complained.

Rather than saying that he's being childish by saving the world, it's more accurate to criticize Mebius's dream, which is truly outrageous.

evolution?

An Yu really couldn't keep up with Sister Mei's train of thought. What would humans look like after evolution?

do not know.

Mebius didn't know either; she just felt that humanity still had too much filth and impurity. She felt that humanity should be able to become better and stand up in the face of disaster, instead of kneeling down to pray.

Mebius didn't speak, but leaned back on the sofa, propping his chin up with one hand and tapping his cheek with his fingers. After a moment, he chuckled softly.

"I don't know why anyone would do that?"

"What does the life, death, health and well-being of others have to do with her? She presumptuously makes decisions for others, but graduation seems a long way off."

"Even in the end, it seems that nothing she had was truly her own; she simply gave others the courage to face disaster and the hope to believe in miracles."

"But in the end, this is just a hopeful outlook. What does it matter to her what happens to others when they encounter disaster?"

However, some people are born with a mission. The mission may be dangerous or boring, but some people will be trapped on it for a lifetime because of the past, because of their childhood, or because of something unattainable.

Möbius was well aware of how absurd her goal was, and she even knew that if she changed her subject, she could take whatever she wanted, whether it was people's livelihood, wealth, or even power.

But she was unwilling to accept it. She had once had a wonderful family, and her father had tried to resist. But that's how humans are; driven by hormones, no matter how hard they try, they can't overcome the body's instinctive reactions.

Under the influence of external factors, even with love for his daughter in his heart, he became unrecognizable, completely humiliated by his illness, and turned into a man who only knew how to drink and commit domestic violence.

She witnessed firsthand the powerlessness of faith, the lack of special power of love, and that humans are just ordinary creatures for whom miracles simply don't exist.

Her life's goal was simply to add another possibility.

In the words of those young people...

If you have the will, no one can change you.

But this possibility sounds simple, yet it's not possible for humans today. Everything is predetermined at birth, and the power of belief simply doesn't exist for ordinary people.

It will take a very long time to change these things, but she must persevere. She has no like-minded friends; she only has herself.

Chapter 277: 274ez

So beautiful!

An Yu sighed, but Mebius had no interest in listening to the boy's sentiments and gently locked his arms around An Yu's neck.

“But little brother An Yu, if you say things so casually again next time, one of us will die.”

Mebius was already used to people's sarcastic remarks, but given An Yu's current status, if he were to be mocked about this, Mebius would probably have to shed his skin completely.

However, given An Yu's personality, she might not retaliate.

"Alright, it's time for you to eat. Stop thinking so much all day. Saving the world or changing humanity is not something that can be done overnight or by just talking."

“An Yu, you truly embody my definition of humanity: a miracle full of hope and belief, and even carrying the hopes of others.”

"So I also look forward to the day when everyone has the hope of becoming you in the distant future."

"Belief and love for loved ones can truly transform into strength to protect those you love and to safeguard the pride of being human."

This is the future that Möbius hoped for: a future where his situation would never happen again, where emotions and beliefs could overcome all obstacles and prevent humanity from being humiliated by disease and disaster.

Perhaps by then, humans still won't be able to understand each other, nor can they guarantee the lower limit of humanity. But even the most ordinary person has an upper limit that is beyond reason.

This is a change based on humanity as a whole, even if it takes a long time, but Mebius doesn't care. Now she is a fusion warrior, the almost infinite snake.

If a hundred years isn't enough, then a thousand; if a thousand years isn't enough, then ten thousand. As long as she hasn't found someone to whom she can entrust her ideals, she will keep going.

The Stigmata Project was also the most promising project she had after ruling out various other possibilities.

The atmosphere seemed to become heavy, Alicia thought to herself, but before she could figure out how to break the deadlock, An Yu asked rather cluelessly, "So, in Sister Mei's eyes in the past, was that also the power of love?"

Mebius replied calmly, "You're cheating."

Even Mebius wouldn't expect every human being to suddenly become immune to blood loss in the face of disaster.

This is utterly unrealistic and defies the laws of the universe. No matter how ambiguous An Yu's question was, the extraordinary circumstances at the time still made Möbius unable to resist complaining.

"A sudden burst of power is like cheating!" An Yu's tone became serious.

He understood Sister Mei's philosophy. Rather than evolution, it was about giving humanity more hope in the face of disaster. Even the most ordinary and unremarkable human could suddenly become extraordinary in the face of disaster.

"The Stigmata Project is a network of Stigmata built from the power of genes. What about your Blood Lock?"

"This is a bond that originates from the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect!"

Mebius seemed a little uninterested, and waved his hand dismissively, saying, "Whatever makes you happy."

An Yu, this man with his own cheat codes, often challenges Möbius's understanding.

Moreover, nothing could be found through research; An Yu's situation seemed more like some kind of blessing.

But the concept of "protection" itself is not based on science.

"Let's eat, or the water will get cold and won't be able to rehydrate."

Mebius walked back to his position, pushed the instant noodle cup with his slender fingers, and then flicked it with force, so that the instant noodles stopped right in front of An Yu.

“Fusion warriors don’t need to eat,” An Yu emphasized.

Actually, Sister Mei doesn't need to eat anymore, but she has always considered herself and is proud of her human identity, so she rarely gives up these habits.

"Oh right, fusion warriors don't need to eat, so why do I have to eat instant noodles with Sister Mei every day?" Alicia suddenly realized.

She initially liked instant noodles, but after eating them with Sister Mei for so long, she no longer likes them.

"Because you can't give up the taste of food."

Mebius hugged her calves and rested her chin on her knees, just as she was used to going home every day. What was the point of going home?

Eating and sleeping?

In reality, neither of these two physiological activities was necessary for her.

She could easily spend the whole day in the lab.

In reality, she goes home every day.

"Hmph, let me make a bold guess: whether it's Sister Mei or Alicia, you're both waiting for me to come home!"

Möbius: ...

Alicia: ?

"Besides, when I used to come home, I would always prepare dinner, so that when you came back you could not only have a delicious dinner right away, but also experience the joy of reunion. Being together is the happiest thing."

Mebius's pale lips parted slightly as he looked at An Yu's confident expression. He wanted to say "ez," but in the end, he didn't.

"Then why don't you go home all the time if you know that?" Alicia asked arrogantly.

She wasn't ashamed at all; she'd already made all the embarrassing mistakes she could, so she didn't care about this little problem.

"Because a brief separation makes the joy of reunion all the more apparent."

Alicia was shocked by An Yu's righteous and shameless attitude, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

After a long silence, Alicia held up her thumb and pinky and gave An Yu a six.

"Also, Sister Mei, you can keep the instant noodles. I've already eaten at the hospital."

"I even borrowed their kitchen. I was thinking of making some for you too, but I wasn't sure when Aponia would wake up, so I didn't make any, afraid of wasting food."

If the work lunch is unpalatable, An Yu wouldn't feel it's a waste of food to throw it away, but she really can't bear to throw away the food she made with care.

This must be the legendary principle of being lenient with oneself and strict with others.

Silence fell over the room, leaving only Möbius frowning, as if he had thought of something.

"Sister Mei?"

"Here I am."

Mebius raised an eyebrow at An Yu, who had just suddenly thought of something absurd.

"You just said that Aponia shares your aspirations, but their methods differ somewhat, right?"

An Yu hesitated and nodded, wondering what Mei Jie wanted to do by asking this.

"Can I understand that you lack a means to persuade her?"

Disagreements between boys are usually easy to resolve: a friendly punch or a difference in fighting ability.

What about between men and women?

Möbius suddenly thought of Sakura, who had initially ignored An Yu. At first, it was only An Yu who unilaterally recognized Sakura as a partner.

"Isn't that obvious?" An Yu muttered.

However, he nodded seriously on the surface.

Have you considered a more direct solution?
